NAME

       rkt-prepare - Prepare to run image(s) in a pod in rkt

SYNOPSIS

       rkt prepare [--volume=name,kind=host,...] [--mount volume=VOL,target=PATH] [--quiet] IMAGE
       [-- image-args...[---]]... [flags]

DESCRIPTION

       Prepares the pod and returns its UUID for a subsequent call to run-prepared.

       Prepare is useful to get the UUID of the pod before running or when preparing takes a long
       time.

       IMAGE should be a string referencing an image; either a hash, local file on disk, or URL.
       They will be checked in that order and the first match will be used.

       An "--" may be used to inhibit rkt prepare's parsing of subsequent arguments, which will
       instead be appended to the preceding image app's exec arguments. End the image arguments
       with a lone "---" to resume argument parsing.
